CONNECTION OF THE SOURCE EQUIPMENT
Connect the outputs of the source appliances to the inputs "S1"..."S6" (6) of this preamplifier. You can
connect up to four devices with analogue RCA stereo high level output such as a CD player in order to
provide the audio signals of your input sources to the system. To more inputs are equipped with XLR con-
nectors. The output sockets on the source equipment are usually indicated by "LINE OUT", "AUDIO OUT"
or "FRONT OUT". You will find information about ways to connect source equipment in their operating
manuals. The four RCA inputs represent electrically equivalent standard high level inputs. They have an
identical function and differ only in name.

The inputs "S5" und "S6" (6) can only be connected with audio devices that own a balanced input con-
nector, too. Leave the inputs free if none of your audio sources uses this kind of connectors. Sometimes
audio source devices have the option of using either of these connection standards.

General information:
To use a record player you need a so-called phono preamplifier (also called an equaliser preampli-
fier), which is installed in the signal path between the record player and one of the high-level inputs.
Some models of record player already include this preamplifier and can be connected directly. You
will find further information in this appliance's operating manual.
The stereo sound of appliances that use output connectors other than RCA (DIN plugs, jack plugs) can
often also be used with the aid of adaptors.
